Definitions
- each recirculation circuit has two liquid columns connected to their heads and bottoms, the massecuite in one of said liquid columns having an upward movement caused by the thermic currents resulting from heating and from gaseous phase bubbles rising in said column, while the massecuite in the associated recycling column has a downward movement, interconnecting two successive circuits, and discharging at the end of said successive crystallizing steps the product composed of nearly uniform crystalline grains in suspension in the resulting molasses.
- Another disadvantage of conventional equipment is the ice low heat transfer through the heating walls which are generally composed of short vertical tubes heated by steam.
- This small heat exchange is due, on the one hand, to the slow massecuite circulation about the end of the boiling operation and, on the other hand, to the fouling which is produced consequently to the syrup and massecuite evaporation and partial decomposition on the heating surfaces, this decomposition being also a result of action of reducing sugars and amino acids present in the sugar syrups, and a source of coloration which lowers the quality of the product.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide for avoiding these inconveniences by establishing a plant wherein the sugar syrup boiling process can be carried out under continuous working conditions, wherein the syrup or the massecuite will be subjected to an intense and relatively uniform mixing, and wherein the fouling of the heating surfaces will be avoided.
- the sugar syrup to be concentrated and crystallised is supplied in continuous manner and subjected to a series of continuous successive unit heatings and to corresponding evaporations.
- a gaseous phase such as air, relatively compressed and preferably saturated with steam, is introduced into the syrup or massecuite.
- the rising gaseous bubbles including the steam are preferably subjected to a forced dispersion (i.e.
- a device to be used to perform this process consists of a series of evaporating-concentrating-crystallizing vessels, called units, each one of said units comprising a first substantially vertical column heated in its lower part, where the hydrostatic-pressure exerted by the column content is sufiiciently high to avoid the ebullition of the syrup in this heated part, said column ending at its head in a liquid-vapor separation chamber connected with the base of the first column through a second column serving as a downcomer for recirculation of the boiling mass from said chamber.
- the first column contains, in its upper part an expansion chamber for the syrup or massecuite arriving hot from the heated part of the column and at the head of this expansion chamber, a device for the forced dispersion of the steam and gaseous phase bubbles which are introduced and distributed into the syrup or the massecuite under the level of this device.
- Said dispersing device is formed by a plurality of vertical partitions, allowing a free passage for the boiling mass between them massecuite in the column, while the introducing and distributing means consists generally of a bubbler.
- the first evaporating crystallising unit comprises an inlet for the continuous supply of syrup to be treated and might be provided with a proportioning device of crystalline germs known as crystallization seed.
- the last unit comprises a continuous outlet of the massecuite forming the product of the operation and each of said units comprises an inlet for massecuite coming from a previous unit, an outlet of the more concentrated massecuite for feeding a following unit, and an inlet for the syrup at a relatively lowrate to compensate for the consumption of said syrup due to evaporation and crystallization.
- the lack of syrup ebullition in the heated part of the first column prevents any change of the concentration of said syrup in the heated area, and, in consequence, substantially suppresses the danger of fouling the heating surfaces, while reducing the thermic decomposition rate.
- the process is conformity with this invention will use as the gaseous phase to be introduced into the content of the unit which is part of the boiling device, steam containing air and relatively compressed, in order to gen erate, in the unit, a fluidized bed formed by the sugar crystals, air, steam and molasses, the apparent average viscosity of this fluidized bed being much lower than the viscosity of the highly viscous massecuite in a conventional process, this decrease in viscosity resulting in improved circulation of the boiling mass.
